Abstract: An apparatus for converting PFC gases exhausted from semiconductor processing equipment to less harmful, non-PFC gases. One embodiment of the apparatus includes a silicon filter and a plasma generation system. The plasma generation system forms a plasma from the effluent PFC gases. Constituents from the plasma react with silicon and/or oxygen in the filter and convert the effluent PFC gases to less harmful, non-PFC gaseous products and byproducts. Another embodiment includes a plasma generation system and a particle trapping and collection system. The particle trapping and collection system traps silicon containing residue from deposition processes that produces such residue, and the plasma generation system forms a plasma from the effluent PFC gases. Constituents from the plasma react with the collected residue to convert the effluent PFC gases to less harmful, non-PFC gaseous products and byproducts.

Abstract: A system for detecting a target substance within a class of explosives and narcotics containing quadrupolar nuclei through the use of nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR). The system applies an RF signal to a coil (34) to excite the substance under test. If the target material is present, an NQR signal will be picked up by the same coil. That signal is compared with known NQR signals in frequency and amplitude. A signal is displayed in an appropriate way if a threshold value of the NQR signal is equalled or exceeded. The empty coil is statically tuned by means of adjusting the location or capacitance values, or both, of static tuning capacitors (102) in the coil. The coil is tuned after the specimen is inserted into the coil by means of an auto-tune feature (36). Effective RFI shielding (37) is provided to prevent external contaminating signals from being detected by the coil and to prevent RF signals from escaping from the scanner. The invention also includes the method for performing tests with the system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fastening device for securing the actuating cable in a U-shaped opening in a holding means into which the fastening device can be inserted radially, wherein the arms of the opening and the attachment part comprise catch members for fixing the attachment part radially, the said catch members engaging one behind the other in the inserted state. In order to be able to detach the fastening device again, the catch members are formed in such a way that they project beyond the holding means in the axial direction. The projections formed in this way can then be gripped and the locking can be released by pressing the projections together. In order to improve the manipulation both during assembly and during dismantling, it is proposed to design the handle on the catching means in such a way that one respective lug is formed integrally on each of the catching means.

Abstract: In the non-sintered nickel electrode for an
alkaline storage battery according to the invention, a
yttrium metal powder and/or a yttrium compound powder
has been added to a particulate active material comprising
composite particles each consisting of a nickel
hydroxide core and a sodium-doped cobalt compound
shell. Because the yttrium metal powder and/or yttrium
compound powder inhibits the diffusion of cobalt into
the nickel hydroxide core, the non-sintered nickel
electrode of the invention exhibits a high utilization
efficiency not only in an initial phase of charge-discharge
cycling but over a long time of use. Moreover,
because the yttrium metal powder and/or yttrium compound
powder enhances the oxygen overpotential, the
non-sintered nickel electrode for an alkaline storage
battery according to the invention shows very satisfactory
charge characteristics particularly at high

Abstract: A silicon film (170) is deposited using low
pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) to fill in
openings (145, 155) formed in a substrate such as an
insulating film (135). An aluminum film (175) and a
metal film (180) are then formed on the silicon film
(170). A thermal process is then carried out. This
thermal process causes the deposited aluminum to replace
the silicon in the openings (145, 155) because the
silicon migrates to the metal and forms a metal silicide
film. The aluminum which replaces the silicon in the
openings (145, 155) has few or no voids. The metal
silicide film any remaining portion of the aluminum film
are then removed using CMP, for example.

Abstract: A photodetector is used to monitor contamination of optical elements within an optical system. The photodetector is aligned to detect nonspecular/diffuse reflections attributable to surface irregularities of particulate matter residing on the surfaces of the optical elements within the system. An increase in the intensity of the nonspecular reflections corresponds to increased levels of contamination on the surface of the optical element. An electronic detector circuit performs signal processing on the photodetector output signal and generates an output signal corresponding to the contamination level. In another aspect of the invention, the photodetector circuit is incorporated into a Raman gas analysis system. The invention also provides a method for detecting nonspecular reflection in an optical resonant system by generating and resonating an optical energy beam in an optical resonant cavity so as to irradiate an optical element within the cavity; detecting optical energy reflecting off the optical element; and generating an output signal functionally related to the intensity of the detected optical energy.
